When I'm using linux, I do something similar, I just sync'd my home folder as my nextcloud directory and that similarly made all my files available.

The way I've got it set up is I have a Nextcloud\Desktop, Nextcloud\Downloads, Nextcloud\Documents, Nextcloud\Pictures, and Nextcloud\Videos folder, and on each machine I use I point each of those points in windows to use the folder in the nextcloud folder instead of my users folder, then I run the official client to sync the entire nextcloud folder. By doing that, whichever computer I'm on I've got the same stuff in my main folders and anything else I have I can keep in the nextcloud folder. I've also got it on my mobile device just to automatically upload new pictures to the InstantUploads folder, but the app is a bit limited.
I live equally on the road working as at home, and I've got completely different computers for home and travel, so in this way I've always got all my files available since once I start up the computer it automatically starts pulling the local files. If you don't want a full copy of everything on both machines, I think you can tell it to just create links of the files and the client will download the files from the server as they're required, but I prefer having a local copy of the files myself.
I use nextcloud for syncing between different computers, because I tend to have different machines that are far separated geographically, and it works well. I put all my home folders on each computer into the nextcloud directory so I have all the same files everywhere I go and if I don't have one of my computers I can still log in and access those files.
I used to use nextcloud as my solution for everything, but a big problem with photos is it isn't really very navigable, and a problem with nextcloud as a general platform is everything is a plugin so if the plugin doesn't get updated you can be stuck on an older version of the software which carries its own risks. As well, given the interface, You have your media but you can't really go back and look at it. What I did instead is I set up a library in jellyfin with all my photos sorted into directories, and you can scroll and navigate through them fairly intuitively. I pulled my data out of google and facebook before deleting the accounts and so had many many photos but no way to really enjoy them, but that solution worked really well for me and I've been able to look at my old photos easily.
No worries, I've done the same at times.
I loved the english gibberish at the end.
I'm talking about the English, the Scottish, the Irish, and the Welsh when I refer to the indigenous people.
I know, I've already played it.
It's a joke, and it doesn't work nitpicking over the definition of "a game".
I'm surprised it took this long.
If the game wasn't massively buggy at launch, could you even call it a fallout game?
One of the interesting outcomes of this could be that a lot of companies require new business models. As far as I can tell for example, opera's core business model is Google paying them to use Google as a search engine. Firefox also makes significant revenue from that practice as well. I believe some Linux distributions even take a cut as well as apple.
If the practice gets shut down I'd expect a lot of changes fast. Either the projects would have to shrink operations, reach out to users for support, find an alternative company to pay for search, or some combination of all three.
Lots of people love to defederate anything at the drop of a hat.
That's it.
In reality, threads and lemmy aren't even the same type of thing and are unlikely to intersect on a regular basis, in the same way you don't see many posts from mastodon or pleroma.
One thing I find funny about the whole thing is meta is a bunch of corpos, so it isn't that hard to just get them to defederate from you if you're willing to grow a spine. My network is blocked, and I believe it's because I called the maintainer of fediblock a nazi gestapo a bunch of times and demanded they add my site to their list of wrongthinkers or I'd call them doubleplus ungood, thus getting on a list that mindless drones use because it's easier to just follow orders, regardless of where those orders come from.
lol
I should learn SDL2...
